If you think about your own life and the mini-village it takes to run it, how much would it change if we learned to bring more compassion to ourselves and those in it? Would accepting our own mishaps help heal our own wounds and would listening, really listening to those around us, help them as well? It’s a question worth reflecting on. As we get more busy with stuff (our digital toys, job, family, our own problems), are we missing out on the opportunity to connect with those we love? It’s Friday, the end of another week. As we wind down with another list of our popular posts this week, I hope you take the time to think about compassion, presence, and empathy. Then, I hope you will...

The hope for the BadAd program is that drugmakers will toe the line and curtail promotional efforts that go too far. We spoke with Arnie Friede, a former FDA associate chief counsel and a former senior corporate counsel at Pfizer, about the program… Pharmalot: Do you think the program is warranted? Friede: From the FDA’s prepecrtive, we are see an ongoing and even increasing amount of correspondence from DDMAC,...

At the end of that interview, Friede mentioned FDA guidance on presenting risk information in drug promotion that had just been released (see "FDA Rules are NOT Media Agnostic").Today, Friede sent me this note regarding that guidance:"It is true that FDA in the Draft Guidance officially adopts the 'reasonable man' standard for interpreting advertising and promotional claims. That is nice and long overdue. And the agency also says that in interpreting advertising it attends to the First Amendment. Likewise nice and long overdue."At the same time, of course, FDA continues to a...
